final round!

One-Winged Angel:

come on. i dont have to say anything. come on.

How Can You Help Me, Stardust?:

It's the battle theme during a Secret Ending fight, and an interesting genre-swap/remix of How Can I Help You, Stardust? Your character (Siffrin) fights his ally and guide through the time loops he's been stuck in. Its so intense and fast paced compared to the tone for the rest of the game's ending and really emphasizes the absolute stress and despair that being in a timeloop will cause.

Still Alive:

One of the best and most classic credits songs in all of gaming. A true masterpiece, that an incredible number of people can quote off the top of their head.

Still Alive having such good lyrics in addition to being a great piece with the music alone is what makes it take the top space for me!

I WON'T LET YOU GO HOME:

siffrin.

1. It ties in recurring melodies from all throughout the soundtrack 2. It perfectly sets the mood for the scene and feels climactic 3. I cannot explain how much this song emotionally impacts you if you've played the game 4. It's just such a good song 5. Siffrin

only song in the soundtrack with an all caps title. the intended emotion is gained from sobbing shouting that fucker out

has motifs from all over the game including the title theme AND game over theme

a little harder to convey the emotion without the context of the game but it still does good

Zelda's Lullaby:

This is probably the most iconic track in the entire series, and is also very important to the plot of Ocarina of Time (which is why I specifically linked the version from that game)

Ocarina of time’s ocarina song : they all follow the "Kondo pattern", which is a repeating leitmotiv within the song

Twilight of the Gods:

this is the absolute perfect final boss theme of all time. the choir absolutely makes it feel like a monumental battle is taking place and the orchestra is simply divine

One of the best final boss themes in fire emblem
